Jack Leggett Quotations

I would have bet he'd have a good game tonight. It was important for us to get back and to play well.

If it doesn't hurt to lose, you'll never win. We weren't as tough as we needed to be this weekend, so we made adjustments to that.

Henson did a great job in relief. That's something that wasn't there over the weekend and our defense played really well.

His was up around 95 pitches and that's all he is going to go. We have to be able to stop it there.

It can take time to find out. We're starting to feel what we're capable of doing. Sometimes teams peak too early. I'm hoping we'll peak at the right time.

I was a little surprised when they announced his record at the beginning of the game that he was 1-0. That shocked me because he has been pitching much better than that. He has got us deep into games and has been very sharp, but we have let a couple of leads slip away.

Overall we pitched pretty well in relief and that was a good thing to see because we weren't hitting the ball that well.

That was a good first and second inning for us, and it sort of set the tone for the rest of the game.

We played very well and we pitched real well all weekend long. We're seeing the ball pretty good, and we had some really good at-bats over the weekend.

We happened to come out on top. We're just playing better baseball right now.

We needed that. We need something positive to happen offensively. We needed to go out there and crack the bats around a little bit because we haven't done that much.

We needed that. We needed something positive. We hadn't been swinging the bats all that much.

We fought and gave our best effort. Both teams played very well.

We've been playing tough competition and I think that's helped us.

We had a good plan going into the game, and we executed it early. We got some confidence going early, and that helped.

We just got beat today. They swung the bats; they hit everything we threw up there. We just didn't pitch very well today, and we didn't hit. It's one game. That's all there is to it. That's the way you have to look at it.

We showed some toughness tonight. We could have panicked. We could have caved in a little bit. But we at least held it at six, kept it even, and we were fortunate to be able to get a run after that.

We scored all five runs with two outs, which is a good thing to see. We didn't do much of that this past weekend.

We did a pretty good job offensively even though there weren't a lot of hits up there. We just got our men on base and did what we had to do.

We didn't make plays that we are capable of making, and that's very disappointing.

I've seen a lot of things in my time and that was one thing that we needed. That was a big, big play for us. Campbell squared that ball up real good. Just fortunately, we had a guy right there for us.

The one thing I've learned over the years is that any team on our schedule can beat us. We've got to focus on one game at a time and let the wins build up for us.

That was a big play there and we made a few more after that. (Elon) is a good hitting team and our defense and pitching got it done.

That's a good pitcher over there. He gave us some problems. Maryland is a much better team this year.

I like him down there a little bit right now. He seemed to swing the bat well tonight.

I really like the way we're playing right now.

I didn't see it. I just saw the ball and thought it was a little down but he obviously thought it was a strike. Actually, I was watching the runner so I never saw anything happen.

I didn't know that. But we still have some work to do and we had to dig ourselves out of that hole so we had to bare down a little bit and we have done a pretty good job of that on the weekends.
